Numbers 24:9

9 He crouches, he lies down like a lion
or a lioness—who dares to rouse him?(A)
Those who bless you will be blessed,
and those who curse you will be cursed.(B)
Ezekiel 19:5-7
Holman Christian Standard Bible
5 When she saw that she waited in vain,
that her hope was lost,
she took another of her cubs
and made him a young lion.
6 He prowled among the lions,(A)
and he became a young lion.
After he learned to tear prey,
he devoured people.
7 He devastated their strongholds[a]
and destroyed their cities.
The land and everything in it shuddered
at the sound of his roaring.
